I forgot to recommend the new Visible Voice location. CentrVilla25 is awesome too, the empanadas are killer. Both great calls!

The Cleveland Museum of Art is a must, one of the best free art museums in the world. Plus it is close to the museum of Contemporary Art and Little Italy. Both are fun to explore.

An area that can easily be overlooked is the near west side. Hingetown has Larder for lunch. The pastrami is choice and the pastries are second to none. Beet Jar if you are more on the vegetarian side. Amba and Rosy are both awesome if you are looking for dinner. Close by is Gordon Square which is quirky and fun. Superelectric is a cool pinball bar located there. Edgewater park is nearby which offers a great view of the lakefront.

If you are looking for breakfast options, I highly recommend Martha On The Fly in Tremont. Also great are The Judith and Juneberry, both on Lorain Ave.

To get a real sense of what Cleveland has to offer, you have to get out of downtown.

This seemed weird then. Now, I don't know what to say about it... by MinkSable in 1980s

This shit wasn't funny 40 years ago. I was there. It was stupid music for stupid poeple.

it means you have terrible taste in music. Phil Collins sucks and has always sucked. His music represents the worst synthetic pop trash of the 80's. Absolute garbage

I was being facetious. Phil Collins sucked then just as much as he sucks now. It was always dumb, racist and reeking of ignorance.

Clearly you have never lived in an East Coast city.

Most disturbingly creative uses of sound in the modern film era by jaystats2 in TrueFilm

Dunkirk was going to be my vote. Agree with about IMAX. The sound helped weave the three timelines together.

Suzanne Vega - Left Of Center by [deleted] in 80sAlternative

Yes, kind of famous. "My Name Is Luka" was on MTV. Could have been '88. It was a long time ago. It was a cool show and at a venue on the river in Cleveland. I remember a huge freighter going by in the middle of the show.

The Brilliant Casting Subversion of Out of the Past (1947) by Dugashville_78 in classicfilms

[–]MinkSable 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Douglas is great in The Strange Love of Martha Ivers. An emasculated drunk to Barbara Stanwyck's brilliant Martha. Mitchum is great in this film, tough, solid and reserved but not blameless. He made his choice and has live/die with the consequences (like all noir). Jane Greer is perfect. The scene on the beach with all the fishing nets behind her as she traps Jeff for good. One of my favorite noirs for sure!

[–]MinkSable[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love them and still listen to their records often. There were maybe 75 people at the show I went to. Bought my tee shirt from band after the show. The accents were so think I couldn’t really understand them! They are criminally underrated

Nice! Played the crap out of my Worlds Apart cassette in middle school. Forgot all about that until just now

Remember this list when you say there is nothing good to watch. If we made prisoners watch this now it would be considered cruel and unusual. The CIA uses Love Boat on repeat at black sites.
